[Qemu-devel] [RFC/PATCH] remove $check_gfx from configure

[Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belon]

The following patch removes check_gfx from qemu's configure as the check it
was trying to enforce is no longer valid.

If neither sdl or cocoa are available, the video output for the console will 
be still available from the vnc server (which can't be disabled).
